GET and POST requests using Python

Question

Please i need some insight on this
Explain to me as if i'm a dummy

Answer 1

you can make http request with the request library
here is an example:

import requests
res = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/get")
print(res.status_code)
print(res.json())

for a post request, just use requests.post() instead of requests.get()

the requests library needs to be installed with pip:
pip install requests

I hope this helps :)

GET is used to request data or to receive data such as requesting a youtube video while POST is meant to securely send data such as login or register submit form.
